I personally haven't, and I found this part pretty funny.

"Of course it could be argued that RPGs simply attract more emotionally unstable gamers, and that if these same players were forced to try Microsoft Flight Simulator, they'd cry like babies when their Cessna crashed into a pylon during a failed runway approach. Sadly, Bowen does not appear to explore this possibility."

I welled up a bit when I beat Dragon Warrior 3 for NES. :(

I love that game.

I got choked up at the end of FFX. (I probably would've too at the end of FFVII but I never finished it due to the god damn spells that initiate a 5 min cut scene.)

But no tears.

During Chrono Trigger, when Marle dissappeared, Crono died, and during the ending (the ones w/fireworks and Marle and Crono fly away w/balloons)

I just couldn't stand shooting all those asteroids into bits and pieces. I mean, they couldn't help it, it's just their nature to crush my little triangular space ship.

Please don't ruin the story for people that haven't played the game yet. :( :(

I cried during FFVII and during Contra when I was a kid because I worked so hard to finish the damn game, and it was sad to know that all the bad guys died on the island cuz it blew up. :(

Oops, you're right. Added spoiler alert. Definitely don't wanna ruin the game for people who haven't played the game. Whoever hasn't should definitely play it now, it is the best game ever created.

Yes. I was playing half-life 2 with the cinematic mod, I was tired, and the music was so beautiful, I almost started to cry.

You build a charecter. Name them, level them, etc... When I was a kid, I'd always name the main char. after myself, then really step into a mental submersion. :confused:

"Developmental failure" comes to mind for some reason...
